DICKIE MOORE
The child actor best known for his role in many Our Gang comedies inscribed his
signature to a fan
Inscribed signature: "To Kenny-/Dickie Moore", 5x3 card. Dickie Moore (1925-2015) was a
child film star in the 1930s, playing the title role in Oliver Twist (1932) and appearing in
several Our Gang comedies. Although he had the honor of bestowing the first screen kiss on
the 14-year-old Shirley Temple in Miss Annie Rooney (1942), Moore, who made his acting
debut at the age of 18 months, found few adult roles. His last lead part was in Jive Junction
(1943). Moore retired from film acting in the mid-1950s, first serving as the first public
relations director of Actors Equity (from 1957) before forming his own public relations
firm, Dick Moore Associates. Moore also produced his own industrial shows. Moore, who has
taught, wrote, directed and appeared occasionally on stage after his "retirement", has written a
book, Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, (but Don't Have Sex or Take the Car) (1984), about
the tribulations of child stardom. He married actress Jane Powell, his third wife, in 1988.
